Chapter 2172 Short-Sightedness
Su Xiaoxiao was waiting nervously in the room. Yesterday she said the wrong thing and made Lu Xiangzhi unhappy. This morning, he left without even staying to have breakfast with her. She cooked his favorite food herself. Snacks, hope he can calm down.
"Madam, the young master left some snacks." The maid came in and said happily to Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Really?"
"The young master and the princess were talking in the study. I saw Xifu taking the food box in with my own eyes," the maid said.
"Princess and Young Master..." Su Xiaoxiao's face changed slightly, and she finally relaxed and became nervous again. She wondered if the Prime Minister would tell the Princess what she said yesterday. What if the Princess disliked her because of this?
She really had no choice. Her mother kept asking her to find ways to help Su Yingying, and she couldn't tell her mother-in-law about it. She knew very well what the Su family was planning. If Su Yingying could become the queen, then she would be the queen in the future. The child is a legitimate son. When the time comes, as long as the court officials support the legitimate legitimate prince, no matter how much Princess Mingyu dotes on her now, it will be useless.
The Su family doesn't understand the Lu family's feelings for Mingyu. For her, she also thinks Mingyu is more important.
However, she couldn't stand her mother's pleading, so she tried it with Lu Xiangzhi.
"...Our loyalty now is to the Emperor. No one can control who the Emperor favors or makes the queen. No matter who becomes the prince in the future, the Lu family will never interfere. There is no need to mention this matter in the future."
This was what her husband said yesterday, which made her feel like she was enlightened.
Since ancient times, only courtiers who protect themselves wisely can go a long way. The Su family is about to be involved in a danger with unknown outcome. She already knows that she is wrong, but she doesn't know how her husband thinks of her.
If he told Princess Qin about this matter, Princess Qin would blame her in her heart in the future.
With how much the parents-in-law love Princess Qin, they will definitely feel that it is her daughter-in-law who is at fault.
"Young madam, you look so ugly. Are you okay?" The maid next to her noticed something was wrong with Su Xiaoxiao and hurriedly helped her sit down.
"I'm fine, don't make any noise." Su Xiaoxiao whispered, her face already pale.
The maid said, "Young lady, please go and ask the doctor. Your hands are so cold."
Su Xiaoxiao took the maid's hand and said, "Pour me a cup of tea. I'll be fine in a while."
"But..." The maid looked at Su Xiaoxiao hesitantly.
"It's okay if I say it's okay. Go and get me some tea." She didn't want to create any trouble at this time, lest she make her husband unhappy and think she was ill on purpose.
The maid had no choice but to pour tea for Su Xiaoxiao.
At this time, Lu Xiangzhi's voice came from outside. The maid turned around and shouted to Su Xiaoxiao in surprise, "Young madam, the young master is back."
Su Xiaoxiao was overjoyed when she heard this and patted her cheek hard, "How does my face look? Come and help me put on some rouge."
The door curtain moved slightly, and Lu Xiangzhi's tall figure appeared in her sight, followed by Ye Zhen.
"Ms. sir!" Su Xiaoxiao stood up nervously, wringing her hands together, not even daring to look at Ye Zhen, thinking she was coming to accuse her, "Princess, why are you here?"
Lu Xiangzhi frowned and looked at Su Xiaoxiao's pale face, knowing that she must not have slept well last night, "I asked Yaoyao to take your pulse. Aren't your hands and feet always cold? Let Yaoyao nurse you back."
Su Xiaoxiao forced a smile and glanced at Ye Zhen awkwardly, "I just didn't sleep well, so don't bother Princess."
"Sister-in-law is too polite, what's the trouble?" Ye Zhen said with a smile. She only knew that Su Xiaoxiao was aggrieved for Mingyu, but Ye Zhen didn't think there was anything wrong with it. At least it proved that she cared about Mingyu.
If someone cares about her daughter, would she still mind?
"We are a family. If you say that, you are out of touch." Lu Xiangzhi said.
Hearing what Lu Xiangzhi said, Su Xiaoxiao naturally couldn't refuse anymore. She smiled shyly at Ye Zhen and said, "Then I'll take care of Princess Lao."
Ye Zhen sat down and took Su Xiaoxiao's pulse. Lu Xiangzhi was watching from the side, looking a little nervous. Although he hid it well, it could still be seen that he cared about Su Xiaoxiao very much.
"Brother, don't stare here." Ye Zhen said funny.
"Ahem, let me take a look." Lu Xiangzhi coughed lightly to hide the discomfort on his face.
Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyes and glanced at Lu Xiang, her cheeks turning slightly red.
Ye Zhen took Su Xiaoxiao's pulse carefully and found that her pulse was weak, which was a sign of physical gain and loss. "Did your sister-in-law have fetal gas when she was pregnant with Ran'er?"
"One time when she was returning to her parents' home, she accidentally fell." Lu Xiangzhi said hurriedly, "She lay in bed for half a month before she stabilized herself."
"But the birth of Ran'er went smoothly." Su Xiaoxiao explained that it was all her fault that time because she was not careful. She and her sister went out to the garden to eat. She was only worried about her husband coming back at some time and did not pay attention to her steps. of.
Ye Zhen nodded lightly, "Sister-in-law must have been too worried after giving birth to Ran's son and did not take good care of her body, so she is a little weak. She feels dizzy after sitting for a long time and has a headache after lying down for a long time. You should pay attention to relaxing your mood."
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "I take a lot of supplements."
"Have you ever heard that a deficiency cannot be replenished?" Ye Zhen said, "I will prescribe a prescription first. You can take it for a few days and then take supplements if you feel better."
"Listen to Yaoyao." Lu Xiangzhi frowned and said to Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao would never go against Lu Xiangzhi's wishes, so she nodded and said, "Okay."
Ye Zhen was happy when she saw the love between their husband and wife, "Then I'll go back first and have someone deliver the medicine later."
"There is a pharmacy at home, and there are all kinds of medicines in it." Su Xiaoxiao said.
"There are some medicines that we don't have at home." Ye Zhen said with a smile. She planned to use the elixir to help Su Xiaoxiao heal his body.
Lu Xiangzhi said, "I'll have someone go to Prince Qin's Mansion to get the medicine later."
"Okay, I'll leave first." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Su Xiaoxiao stood up and said goodbye to each other. Ye Zhen said goodbye to them and went to see Mr. Pei to say goodbye.
"Ms. sir..." Su Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Xiangzhi nervously.
"I spoke too harshly yesterday, so don't take it to heart, but if I don't say something, I'm afraid you will be deceived." Lu Xiangzhi said in a low voice.
Su Xiaoxiao said hurriedly, "I said those words because of my short-sightedness. I was wrong."
"Did your mother-in-law ask you to say those words you said?" Lu Xiangzhi asked in a low voice.
"Mom is just a woman, and it is inevitable that she will not think things through carefully. I will try to persuade her." Su Xiaoxiao said, fearing that Lu Xiangzhi would look down on her family.
Lu Xiangzhi said, "You don't need to talk about this matter. You should wait until I see my father-in-law before deciding."
"You want to see my father?" Su Xiaoxiao asked in surprise.
"Well, I was supposed to visit. Let's go together tomorrow." Lu Xiang said.
